The version 4.0.2 on opendx.org, I compiled with MOTIF and MEsa 3.0. I use it on Linux (XF86 3.3.5, voodo3 video, and MetroLink OpenGl 1.1) It works just fine for me. I have no idea why it gives problems on some other systems.
4.0.9/4.0.7 have bugs and DXServer sometimes dies. Suhaib **************************** Suhaib M.
